dansnad Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 since short bows and long bows of the same type carry the same range bonus, and since short bows fire faster (right?) is there a reason to use long bows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmyd17 Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 Unless you're not going for time, the longbow is more accurate, but not as fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noctis Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 Longbows have a longer range as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dansnad Posted June 19, 2006 Author Share Posted June 19, 2006 are there any numbers or specifics on what the comparative advantages are? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meol Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 As far as I know (which is acceptable, but not overwhelming), both bows have the same accuracy and strength, but the shortbow shoots faster, and the longbow longer. YOu'd use a longow while p'king, for example. This signature is intentionally left blank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YOu'd use a longow while p'king, for example. Why would we use a longbow, it's slower. Most pking rangers use shortbows nowadays.... Any hockey fans out there who wants to chat, just send me a PM!!!

God_is_love Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 for sniping someone far away, it would take some time for them to come to you. When they come close, switch to shortbow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
